soul_n intend_v his_o resolution_n every_o thing_n intend_v it_o in_o that_o course_n he_o be_v in_o and_o he_o may_v go_v to_o the_o high_a and_o be_v the_o great_a professor_n and_o be_v ready_a for_o all_o duty_n and_o yet_o be_v find_v a_o stranger_n to_o jesus_n christ_n therefore_o look_v to_o yourselves_o i_o remember_v mr._n bolton_n that_o bless_a man_n he_o divide_v the_o world_n for_o the_o fewness_n of_o they_o that_o shall_v be_v save_v say_v he_o the_o great_a part_n of_o the_o world_n two_o or_o three_o part_n of_o it_o be_v most_o entire_a heathen_n in_o europe_n here_o we_o have_v the_o most_o part_n papist_n and_o but_o a_o few_o that_o be_v protestant_n and_o among_o those_o part_n there_o be_v few_o that_o profess_v religion_n and_o among_o those_o that_o profess_v religion_n there_o be_v very_o few_o that_o do_v it_o in_o truth_n as_o another_o godly_a man_n say_v take_v a_o multitude_n of_o professor_n that_o have_v be_v breed_v under_o the_o law_n that_o have_v be_v breed_v on_o mount_n sinai_n take_v a_o congregation_n of_o such_o professor_n as_o there_o be_v many_o such_o in_o england_n and_o let_v the_o gospel_n come_v and_o be_v preach_v right_o among_o they_o to_o translate_v they_o let_v a_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n come_v and_o say_v there_o be_v no_o damnation_n to_o they_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n jesus_n and_o you_o be_v justify_v free_o and_o christ_n have_v fulfil_v the_o law_n and_o all_o be_v clear_a whereas_o before_o there_o be_v fear_n lest_o they_o be_v not_o righteous_a and_o they_o do_v work_v hard_o now_o let_v a_o man_n labour_n to_o draw_v they_o to_o the_o gospel_n and_o to_o plant_v christ_n and_o the_o principle_n of_o christ_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o i_o fear_v that_o there_o be_v not_o one_o in_o ten_o but_o will_v miscarry_v in_o the_o remove_n as_o you_o find_v it_o often_o with_o your_o tree_n when_o you_o remove_v and_o transplant_v they_o i_o say_v abundance_n of_o those_o professor_n will_v come_v to_o nothing_o for_o when_o the_o fear_n of_o hell_n and_o damnation_n be_v go_v from_o their_o conscience_n when_o the_o whip_n be_v go_v they_o will_v turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n nay_o some_o will_v turn_v downright_a enemy_n and_o persecutor_n of_o the_o gospel_n as_o the_o pharisee_n and_o of_o those_o that_o will_v come_v in_o in_o all_o probability_n in_o remove_v and_o translate_n they_o from_o the_o law_n to_o the_o gospel_n there_o be_v not_o one_o in_o ten_o but_o will_v turn_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n into_o wantonness_n and_o there_o go_v all_o their_o religion_n the_o way_n to_o heaven_n be_v narrow_a our_o lord_n christ_n say_v and_o i_o think_v it_o will_v be_v find_v far_o more_o narrow_a than_o we_o conceive_v of_o it_o therefore_o as_o another_o godly_a man_n say_v we_o be_v exceed_o mistake_v in_o judge_v of_o professor_n we_o look_v upon_o they_o and_o those_o that_o begin_v to_o amend_v from_o their_o sin_n we_o call_v they_o professor_n but_o this_o be_v the_o true_a way_n of_o judge_v that_o there_o be_v but_o two_o root_n in_o the_o world_n the_o old_a adam_n and_o the_o new_a adam_n there_o be_v but_o two_o covenant_n sinai_n and_o jerusalem_n there_o be_v but_o two_o way_n of_o walk_v after_o the_o flesh_n and_o after_o the_o spirit_n after_o the_o law_n and_o after_o the_o gospel_n now_o i_o judge_v he_o to_o be_v a_o saint_n and_o a_o believer_n and_o god_n call_v and_o own_v he_o as_o a_o saint_n though_o he_o be_v weak_a and_o be_v not_o so_o glorious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n as_o many_o formal_a professor_n yet_o if_o i_o see_v any_o principle_n of_o the_o gospel_n in_o he_o if_o there_o be_v a_o little_a of_o christ_n in_o he_o in_o power_n though_o it_o be_v but_o in_o a_o little_a measure_n and_o he_o can_v pray_v but_o a_o little_a and_o he_o can_v keep_v fast_v day_n and_o day_n of_o humiliation_n so_o plausible_o as_o many_o that_o make_v a_o trade_n of_o it_o in_o this_o city_n yet_o if_o that_o prayer_n and_o repeat_v and_o read_v and_o hear_v or_o preach_v or_o whatsoever_o it_o be_v if_o it_o flow_v from_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n as_o a_o natural_a man_n know_v natural_a thing_n so_o one_o saint_n know_v another_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n know_v the_o thing_n of_o god_n it_o be_v true_a we_o all_o of_o we_o have_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o flesh_n and_o there_o be_v somewhat_o of_o good_a old_a adam_n as_o well_o as_o of_o corrupt_a adam_n but_o sure_o we_o ought_v not_o to_o conceive_v he_o to_o be_v a_o saint_n let_v he_o be_v never_o so_o glorious_a in_o the_o eye_n of_o the_o world_n and_o in_o the_o performance_n of_o duty_n if_o there_o be_v not_o somewhat_o of_o christ_n in_o he_o you_o may_v see_v a_o poor_a despicable_a creature_n and_o see_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o christ_n in_o he_o and_o on_o the_o other_o side_n you_o may_v see_v great_a professor_n that_o be_v ringleader_n of_o other_o and_o yet_o there_o be_v not_o one_o jot_n of_o christ_n in_o they_o but_o all_o be_v old_a adam_n screw_v up_o in_o his_o brave_a part_n and_o all_o be_v but_o flesh_n a_o little_a more_o refine_v and_o he_o that_o be_v flesh_n and_o all_o that_o be_v flesh_n can_v inherit_v the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n look_v to_o yourselves_o serious_o especial_o you_o that_o be_v most_o eminent_a that_o think_v best_o of_o yourselves_o that_o be_v ancient_a professor_n unless_o you_o look_v to_o yourselves_o you_o may_v take_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o pain_n and_o when_o all_o come_v to_o all_o after_o all_o your_o pray_n and_o fast_v and_o repeat_v and_o preach_v you_o may_v be_v find_v to_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n but_o man_n that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n that_o be_v according_a to_o the_o refine_a and_o well_o educate_v principle_n of_o old_a adam_n you_o may_v be_v ishmaels_n and_o be_v build_v upon_o mount_n sinai_n when_o all_o be_v do_v therefore_o i_o say_v we_o may_v hence_o learn_v to_o judge_v right_o of_o person_n who_o be_v saint_n and_o who_o be_v not_o who_o be_v the_o child_n of_o god_n and_o who_o be_v not_o for_o in_o most_o thing_n we_o do_v not_o judge_v right_o we_o do_v not_o judge_v as_o god_n judge_v we_o usual_o judge_v of_o man_n and_o thing_n according_a to_o natural_a wisdom_n or_o according_a to_o some_o distinction_n and_o definition_n that_o we_o have_v of_o thing_n in_o that_o natural_a divinity_n we_o have_v as_o for_o instance_n if_o a_o man_n leave_v his_o drunkenness_n and_o whoredom_n and_o come_v up_o to_o some_o kind_n of_o holiness_n in_o his_o life_n in_o appearance_n if_o he_o come_v to_o hear_v sermon_n and_o repeat_v they_o and_o pray_v a_o little_a in_o his_o family_n that_o man_n we_o call_v a_o saint_n a_o godly_a man_n and_o it_o may_v be_v he_o may_v be_v so_o and_o it_o may_v be_v not_o so_o now_o the_o way_n that_o god_n judge_v of_o all_o man_n be_v as_o they_o be_v child_n either_o of_o the_o old_a or_o of_o the_o new_a adam_n and_o not_o according_a to_o such_o a_o proportion_n of_o strictness_n in_o their_o life_n for_o the_o pharisee_n go_v beyond_o many_o weak_a professor_n in_o common_a righteousness_n and_o this_o shall_v be_v a_o main_a ground_n of_o our_o communion_n and_o fellowship_n and_o delight_n in_o other_o whether_o in_o church_n or_o otherwise_o it_o shall_v not_o be_v ground_v on_o this_o if_o such_o a_o man_n be_v of_o my_o opinion_n in_o such_o thing_n if_o he_o agree_v with_o i_o he_o be_v for_o i_o and_o another_o that_o agree_v with_o another_o he_o be_v for_o he_o these_o kind_n of_o communion_n will_v prove_v nothing_o but_o faction_n in_o the_o end_n but_o the_o true_a communion_n be_v when_o saint_n together_o keep_v fellowship_n church-fellowship_n or_o other_o upon_o spiritual_a ground_n that_o be_v when_o christ_n in_o his_o soul_n and_o christ_n in_o my_o close_a together_o this_o be_v the_o main_a ground_n that_o make_v communion_n and_o fellowship_n whatsoever_o come_v in_o beside_o that_o be_v additional_a but_o if_o there_o be_v a_o communion_n of_o people_n without_o this_o i_o say_v it_o will_v prove_v but_o faction_n but_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o flesh_n i_o shall_v show_v now_o what_o course_n we_o shall_v take_v to_o bring_v ourselves_o to_o spiritual_a walk_n and_o second_o what_o they_o shall_v do_v that_o god_n have_v bring_v up_o in_o some_o measure_n to_o this_o condition_n but_o i_o leave_v that_o till_o god_n give_v another_o opportunity_n sermon_n iu._n rom._n 8._o 4._o that_o the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n may_v be_v fulfil_v in_o we_o who_o walk_v not_o after_o the_o flesh_n but_o after_o the_o spirit_n there_o be_v three_o

of_o god_n he_o faith_n not_o by_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n though_o that_o be_v true_a there_o be_v infinite_a mercy_n but_o say_v he_o that_o god_n may_v declare_v his_o righteousness_n in_o christ_n to_o save_v we_o it_o be_v a_o merciful_a thing_n for_o god_n to_o give_v we_o christ_n and_o to_o give_v we_o heart_n to_o know_v that_o christ_n and_o to_o believe_v in_o that_o christ_n it_o be_v infinite_a mercy_n but_o now_o that_o we_o be_v in_o christ_n and_o unite_v in_o he_o as_o there_o be_v mercy_n so_o it_o be_v righteous_a and_o just_a with_o god_n to_o save_v we_o because_o we_o be_v righteous_a person_n mistake_v i_o not_o i_o say_v every_o poor_a saint_n through_o christ_n be_v a_o righteous_a person_n a_o just_a man_n i_o say_v in_o and_o through_o christ_n he_o have_v take_v away_o all_o our_o sin_n and_o forgive_v all_o our_o iniquity_n coloss_n 2._o so_o that_o when_o god_n save_v believer_n he_o do_v not_o only_o save_v they_o out_o of_o mercy_n but_o out_o of_o righteousness_n he_o can_v do_v no_o otherwise_o therefore_o it_o be_v three_o time_n over_o his_o righteousness_n his_o righteousness_n his_o righteousness_n rom._n 3._o and_o that_o be_v a_o bless_a word_n in_o heb._n 12._o you_o be_v come_v to_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n make_v perfect_a i_o do_v not_o conceive_v that_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o man_n in_o heaven_n as_o many_o do_v and_o no_o wonder_n they_o mistake_v for_o i_o do_v so_o for_o many_o year_n that_o place_n it_o look_v so_o like_a heaven_n that_o i_o take_v it_o for_o heaven_n itself_o you_o be_v come_v unto_o mount_n zion_n to_o the_o general_a assembly_n and_o church_n of_o the_o first-born_a and_o to_o the_o spirit_n of_o just_a man_n make_v perfect_a a_o man_n will_v think_v it_o be_v heaven_n itself_o it_o be_v call_v heaven_n but_o it_o be_v nothing_o in_o the_o world_n but_o the_o glorious_a estate_n of_o the_o saint_n in_o jesus_n christ_n under_o the_o new-testament_n as_o you_o may_v see_v afterward_o therefore_o as_o christ_n say_v let_v this_o word_n sink_v into_o your_o heart_n that_o if_o thou_o be_v a_o right_a believer_n thou_o be_v perfect_o just_a and_o righteous_a through_o jesus_n christ_n as_o if_o thou_o have_v never_o sin_v against_o the_o law_n of_o god_n not_o by_o thy_o own_o righteousness_n but_o by_o the_o righteousness_n of_o jesus_n christ_n for_o what_o can_v be_v say_v more_o faith_n the_o apostle_n the_o righteousness_n of_o the_o law_n be_v fulfil_v he_o do_v not_o say_v we_o have_v a_o piece_n of_o it_o but_o it_o be_v fulfil_v that_o be_v to_o a_o jota_n or_o tittle_n the_o law_n can_v say_v black_a be_v thy_o eye_n because_o christ_n have_v pay_v and_o do_v all_o that_o it_o can_v demand_v now_o to_o give_v you_o a_o word_n or_o two_o of_o the_o ground_n or_o reason_n to_o help_v you_o to_o believe_v this_o truth_n to_o show_v you_o how_o it_o come_v about_o it_o come_v about_o three_o way_n i_o mean_v it_o will_v be_v clear_a to_o you_o three_o way_n if_o you_o consider_v three_o thing_n reas_n 1._o first_o you_o must_v consider_v that_o jesus_n christ_n which_o be_v our_o surety_n he_o be_v send_v of_o the_o father_n out_o of_o his_o love_n as_o a_o public_a person_n to_o fulfil_v the_o law_n of_o god_n by_o do_v and_o suffer_v as_o a_o public_a person_n there_o be_v much_o comfort_n in_o that_o belove_a you_o can_v never_o thorough_o understand_v your_o justification_n unless_o you_o study_v the_o first_o adam_n what_o kind_n of_o person_n adam_n be_v as_o you_o may_v see_v in_o rom._n 5._o now_o the_o lord_n jesus_n he_o come_v a_o public_a person_n and_o he_o be_v deliver_v for_o our_o offence_n as_o it_o be_v say_v rom._n 4._o 25._o he_o do_v die_v for_o our_o sin_n that_o be_v one_o thing_n reas_n 2._o now_o the_o second_o thing_n that_o demonstrate_v this_o to_o we_o be_v beside_o his_o die_v as_o a_o public_a person_n there_o be_v a_o union_n make_v between_o every_o poor_a believer_n and_o christ_n as_o real_o as_o between_o christ_n and_o his_o father_n indeed_o it_o be_v call_v in_o scripture_n a_o marriage_n because_o as_o in_o a_o marriage_n all_o the_o wealth_n of_o the_o husband_n be_v the_o wife_n it_o become_v she_o and_o she_o have_v a_o right_a to_o it_o after_o marriage_n so_o all_o that_o be_v in_o christ_n become_v we_o by_o this_o union_n but_o it_o be_v a_o more_o real_a union_n a_o close_a union_n by_o far_o then_o that_o of_o marriage_n it_o be_v compare_v to_o the_o union_n between_o the_o member_n and_o the_o head_n now_o by_o this_o union_n that_o you_o may_v read_v of_o in_o joh._n 17._o all_o that_o be_v we_o become_v christ_n and_o all_o that_o be_v christ_n become_v we_o there_o be_v two_o thing_n reas_n 3._o then_o three_o we_o find_v that_o god_n the_o father_n to_o who_o the_o debt_n be_v owe_v and_o who_o law_n this_o be_v that_o we_o must_v satisfy_v he_o acknowledge_v satisfaction_n and_o what_o can_v we_o have_v more_o god_n the_o father_n acknowledge_v that_o his_o son_n have_v satisfy_v the_o law_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v free_v now_o he_o do_v acknowledge_v it_o three_o way_n first_o you_o shall_v have_v it_o mat._n 17._o compare_v with_o 2_o pet._n 1._o for_o peter_n be_v much_o in_o it_o we_o follow_v not_o devise_v fable_n but_o we_o come_v to_o speak_v of_o the_o voice_n in_o the_o mount_n this_o be_v my_o beloved_a son_n as_o if_o he_o have_v say_v this_o be_v one_o main_a piece_n of_o the_o gospel_n we_o hear_v a_o voice_n when_o we_o be_v with_o our_o master_n in_o the_o mount_n say_v this_o be_v my_o belove_a son_n in_o who_o my_o soul_n be_v well_o please_v that_o for_o his_o person_n then_o a_o second_o thing_n that_o do_v show_v that_o he_o be_v satisfy_v be_v by_o suffering_n jesus_n christ_n after_o he_o be_v arrest_v and_o in_o prison_n for_o our_o debt_n for_o christ_n be_v in_o prison_n for_o our_o debt_n he_o be_v arrest_v and_o that_o according_a to_o law_n he_o be_v bring_v into_o prison_n and_o all_o our_o suit_n be_v clap_v on_o his_o back_n all_o our_o execution_n and_o outlary_n be_v lay_v on_o his_o shoulder_n and_o then_o the_o father_n let_v he_o out_o of_o prison_n be_v our_o surety_n if_o he_o have_v not_o pay_v our_o debt_n he_o have_v not_o come_v out_o of_o prison_n but_o now_o the_o father_n let_v he_o out_o that_o be_v the_o father_n suffer_v he_o to_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a therefore_o we_o find_v that_o our_o justification_n be_v lay_v more_o upon_o the_o resurrection_n of_o jesus_n christ_n then_o upon_o his_o death_n as_o we_o see_v in_o rom._n 4._o 25._o who_o be_v deliver_v for_o our_o offence_n and_o raise_v again_o for_o our_o justification_n that_o be_v he_o do_v die_v for_o our_o sin_n and_o be_v raise_v again_o for_o our_o justification_n and_o in_o rom._n 8._o he_o that_o spare_v not_o his_o own_o son_n but_o deliver_v he_o up_o for_o we_o all_o how_o shall_v he_o not_o with_o he_o give_v we_o all_o thing_n who_o be_v he_o that_o condemn_v it_o be_v christ_n that_o die_v yea_o rather_o that_o be_v rise_v again_o who_o be_v even_o at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n who_o also_o make_v intercession_n for_o we_o that_o be_v his_o die_a for_o we_o do_v satisfy_v the_o law_n but_o that_o do_v not_o justify_v we_o until_o we_o see_v that_o he_o be_v rise_v again_o and_o then_o we_o see_v that_o all_o the_o debt_n be_v pay_v because_o our_o surety_n be_v get_v out_o of_o prison_n therefore_o justification_n i_o mean_v the_o knowledge_n of_o it_o at_o least_o principal_o arise_v from_o christ_n resurrection_n now_o when_o i_o see_v christ_n be_v rise_v and_o go_v abroad_o he_o be_v go_v out_o of_o the_o grave_n and_o go_v to_o heaven_n i_o know_v that_o the_o law_n be_v fulfil_v and_o the_o father_n be_v satisfy_v and_o the_o sergeant_n the_o devil_n have_v nothing_o to_o arrest_v i_o for_o all_o be_v satisfy_v all_o be_v clear_a three_o and_o last_o i_o know_v god_n the_o father_n be_v satisfy_v for_o the_o law_n it_o be_v god_n the_o father_n writ_n that_o he_o have_v against_o we_o and_o now_o we_o see_v that_o all_o be_v pay_v not_o only_o because_o our_o surety_n be_v get_v out_o of_o prison_n for_o so_o a_o man_n may_v do_v that_o have_v not_o pay_v a_o debt_n but_o because_o when_o he_o be_v out_o of_o prison_n he_o ascend_v to_o his_o father_n and_o the_o father_n make_v he_o sit_v at_o the_o right_a hand_n of_o god_n in_o the_o glory_n of_o majesty_n on_o high_a and_o he_o have_v give_v he_o power_n and_o authority_n to_o rule_v the_o world_n till_o the_o day_n of_o judgement_n now_o in_o

can_v do_v a_o little_a from_o the_o spirit_n of_o jesus_n christ_n and_o if_o god_n will_v frame_v my_o heart_n from_o the_o lord_n christ_n and_o his_o spirit_n to_o speak_v a_o few_o word_n to_o

that_o be_v this_o that_o this_o be_v so_o that_o this_o be_v to_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o spirit_n then_o we_o shall_v long_o very_o much_o for_o the_o fulfil_n of_o those_o prophecy_n and_o

there_o promise_v which_o shall_v be_v the_o height_n of_o our_o happiness_n that_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n shall_v come_v down_o from_o heaven_n mistake_v i_o not_o though_o it_o be_v a_o consequent_a yet_o it_o be_v not_o chief_o and_o proper_o such_o a_o way_n of_o government_n this_o or_o that_o or_o the_o other_o way_n though_o it_o be_v true_a that_o government_n will_v follow_v upon_o it_o yet_o if_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v only_o to_o reform_v our_o church_n though_o that_o be_v a_o blessing_n or_o that_o christ_n shall_v come_v and_o reign_v here_o temporal_o and_o give_v we_o inheritance_n and_o riches_n and_o the_o like_a true_o a_o saint_n will_v not_o long_o much_o for_o these_o thing_n but_o the_o new_a jerusalem_n shall_v come_v down_o from_o heaven_n and_o abundance_n of_o blessing_n that_o shall_v go_v along_o with_o it_o what_o be_v that_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o be_v we_o shall_v have_v the_o light_n of_o the_o gospel_n clear_o reveal_v unto_o we_o and_o we_o shall_v have_v gospel-principle_n full_o put_v into_o our_o soul_n which_o by_o antichrist_n by_o babylon_n we_o have_v be_v sednce_v of_o these_o thirteen_o or_o fourteen_o hundred_o year_n for_o that_o be_v the_o mischief_n of_o antichrist_n he_o have_v keep_v we_o all_o his_o reign_n under_o the_o old_a testament_n with_o altar_n and_o sacrifice_n and_o priest_n and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o every_o thing_n just_a as_o they_o use_v under_o moses_n and_o we_o be_v not_o whole_o go_v out_o of_o antichrist_n yet_o but_o the_o lord_n will_v send_v a_o light_n into_o our_o heart_n to_o know_v the_o truth_n in_o the_o power_n and_o to_o square_v our_o heart_n to_o it_o for_o that_o be_v new_a jerusalem_n if_o you_o compare_v it_o with_o heb._n 12._o where_o the_o holy_a jerusalem_n the_o heavenly_a jerusalem_n be_v clear_o opposite_a to_o mount_n sinai_n so_o compare_v it_o with_o gal._n 4._o he_o tell_v we_o that_o jerusalem_n which_o be_v above_o be_v the_o mother_n of_o we_o all_o that_o be_v the_o covenant_n of_o grace_n and_o the_o principle_n thereof_o in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n therefore_o i_o wish_v that_o the_o lord_n will_v set_v your_o heart_n and_o my_o longing_n after_o that_o that_o we_o may_v have_v more_o of_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o gospel_n and_o of_o the_o principle_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n in_o we_o and_o then_o for_o matter_n of_o government_n of_o church_n those_o thing_n will_v follow_v for_o to_o set_v up_o government_n and_o discipline_n before_o this_o come_v into_o the_o soul_n true_o it_o be_v to_o build_v castle_n in_o the_o air_n for_o let_v a_o man_n take_v we_o and_o frame_v we_o in_o the_o independent_a or_o presbyterian_a way_n in_o what_o way_n he_o will_v unless_o the_o principle_n of_o jesus_n christ_n in_o the_o gospel_n be_v spiritual_o plant_v it_o will_v be_v a_o fleshly_a independent_a and_o a_o fleshly_a presbyterian_a service_n therefore_o labour_v chief_o for_o that_o and_o pray_v the_o lord_n to_o fulfil_v that_o and_o then_o your_o government_n whatsoever_o it_o shall_v be_v god_n will_v reveal_v it_o more_o full_o people_z be_v now_o general_o go_v to_o build_v and_o order_v church_n and_o i_o know_v not_o what_o unless_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n govern_v in_o the_o new_a testament_n it_o be_v a_o vain_a thing_n for_o if_o we_o have_v our_o former_a fleshly_a heart_n that_o walk_v according_a to_o the_o law_n and_o according_a to_o the_o flesh_n all_o the_o government_n in_o the_o world_n will_v never_o do_v we_o good_a because_o god_n have_v curse_v flesh_n and_o it_o will_v never_o be_v regulate_v and_o bring_v to_o good_a and_o this_o also_o shall_v move_v we_o exceed_o to_o long_v for_o the_o come_n of_o jesus_n christ_n to_o glory_n for_o his_o come_n to_o we_o or_o our_o come_n to_o he_o and_o the_o reason_n of_o that_o you_o shall_v have_v in_o 1_o cor._n 15._o 49._o a_o glorious_a word_n that_o have_v dwell_v much_o in_o my_o

person_n and_o we_o be_v from_o he_o we_o must_v die_v now_o here_o be_v the_o comfort_n of_o it_o a_o bless_a word_n it_o be_v as_o we_o have_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o earthly_a so_o we_o shall_v bear_v also_o the_o image_n of_o the_o heavenly_a that_o be_v when_o the_o redemption_n of_o our_o body_n come_v at_o the_o day_n of_o christ_n then_o as_o we_o have_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o earthly_a so_o we_o shall_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o heavenly_a we_o have_v bear_v hitherto_o and_o do_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o natural_a adam_n we_o be_v all_o his_o son_n and_o his_o daughter_n just_a like_o he_o in_o our_o wisdom_n and_o understanding_n and_o body_n and_o soul_n poor_a earthly_a creature_n natural_a frail_a creature_n we_o be_v and_o by_o that_o curse_n that_o be_v lay_v upon_o he_o we_o must_v all_o die_v and_o lay_v down_o these_o earthly_a tabernacle_n these_o earthly_a creature_n must_v be_v dissolve_v as_o we_o have_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o earthly_a not_o only_o as_o we_o have_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o old_a adam_n sin_n and_o wickedness_n and_o pride_n and_o frowardness_n so_o now_o we_o shall_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o new_a not_o only_o in_o respect_n of_o grace_n and_o holiness_n and_o righteousness_n that_o if_o i_o be_v in_o he_o all_o those_o corruption_n of_o nature_n shall_v out_o and_o i_o shall_v have_v a_o new_a nature_n that_o be_v true_a but_o that_o be_v not_o all_o but_o as_o i_o whole_o bear_v the_o image_n and_o shape_n of_o old_a adam_n his_o body_n and_o soul_n and_o sense_n and_o all_o those_o must_v die_v so_o when_o these_o body_n shall_v be_v raise_v we_o shall_v as_o absolute_o and_o large_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o new_a adam_n the_o lord_n jesus_n in_o our_o body_n &_o sense_n and_o all_o our_o whole_a man_n soul_n and_o body_n in_o respect_n of_o substance_n as_o well_o as_o quality_n we_o shall_v bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o second_o adam_n as_o lively_a and_o in_o as_o large_a a_o extent_n as_o ever_o we_o bear_v the_o image_n of_o the_o earthly_a adam_n therefore_o that_o be_v a_o great_a comfort_n i_o will_v tell_v you_o why_o because_o it_o be_v not_o only_o the_o sinfulness_n of_o a_o christian_n that_o trouble_v he_o but_o his_o earthiness_n so_o many_o distemper_n and_o trouble_n that_o it_o be_v a_o
